WebMapTileServiceImageryProvider

new Cesium.WebMapTileServiceImageryProvider(options)

Provides tiled imagery served by WMTS 1.0.0 compliant servers. This provider supports HTTP KVP-encoded and RESTful GetTile requests, but does not yet support the SOAP encoding.

Members

Gets or sets a clock that is used to get keep the time used for time dynamic parameters.
Gets the credit to display when this imagery provider is active. Typically this is used to credit the source of the imagery.

deprecated defaultAlpha : Number|undefined

The default alpha blending value of this provider, with 0.0 representing fully transparent and 1.0 representing fully opaque.

Deprecated: true

deprecated defaultBrightness : Number|undefined

The default brightness of this provider. 1.0 uses the unmodified imagery color. Less than 1.0 makes the imagery darker while greater than 1.0 makes it brighter.

Deprecated: true

deprecated defaultContrast : Number|undefined

The default contrast of this provider. 1.0 uses the unmodified imagery color. Less than 1.0 reduces the contrast while greater than 1.0 increases it.

Deprecated: true

deprecated defaultDayAlpha : Number|undefined

The default alpha blending value on the day side of the globe of this provider, with 0.0 representing fully transparent and 1.0 representing fully opaque.

Deprecated: true

deprecated defaultGamma : Number|undefined

The default gamma correction to apply to this provider. 1.0 uses the unmodified imagery color.

Deprecated: true

deprecated defaultHue : Number|undefined

The default hue of this provider in radians. 0.0 uses the unmodified imagery color.

Deprecated: true

The default texture magnification filter to apply to this provider.

Deprecated: true

The default texture minification filter to apply to this provider.

Deprecated: true

deprecated defaultNightAlpha : Number|undefined

The default alpha blending value on the night side of the globe of this provider, with 0.0 representing fully transparent and 1.0 representing fully opaque.

Deprecated: true

deprecated defaultSaturation : Number|undefined

The default saturation of this provider. 1.0 uses the unmodified imagery color. Less than 1.0 reduces the saturation while greater than 1.0 increases it.

Deprecated: true

Gets or sets an object that contains static dimensions and their values.
Gets an event that is raised when the imagery provider encounters an asynchronous error. By subscribing to the event, you will be notified of the error and can potentially recover from it. Event listeners are passed an instance of TileProviderError.
Gets the mime type of images returned by this imagery provider.
Gets a value indicating whether or not the images provided by this imagery provider include an alpha channel. If this property is false, an alpha channel, if present, will be ignored. If this property is true, any images without an alpha channel will be treated as if their alpha is 1.0 everywhere. When this property is false, memory usage and texture upload time are reduced.

readonly maximumLevel : number|undefined

Gets the maximum level-of-detail that can be requested.
Gets the minimum level-of-detail that can be requested.
Gets the proxy used by this provider.
Gets a value indicating whether or not the provider is ready for use.

Deprecated: true

readonly deprecated readyPromise : Promise.<boolean>

Gets a promise that resolves to true when the provider is ready for use.

Deprecated: true

Gets the rectangle, in radians, of the imagery provided by this instance.
Gets the tile discard policy. If not undefined, the discard policy is responsible for filtering out "missing" tiles via its shouldDiscardImage function. If this function returns undefined, no tiles are filtered.
Gets the height of each tile, in pixels.
Gets the width of each tile, in pixels.
Gets the tiling scheme used by this provider.
Gets or sets a time interval collection that is used to get time dynamic parameters. The data of each TimeInterval is an object containing the keys and values of the properties that are used during tile requests.
Gets the URL of the service hosting the imagery.

Methods

Gets the credits to be displayed when a given tile is displayed.
Name Type Description
x number The tile X coordinate.
y number The tile Y coordinate.
level number The tile level;
Returns:
The credits to be displayed when the tile is displayed.

pickFeatures(x, y, level, longitude, latitude)undefined

Picking features is not currently supported by this imagery provider, so this function simply returns undefined.
Name Type Description
x number The tile X coordinate.
y number The tile Y coordinate.
level number The tile level.
longitude number The longitude at which to pick features.
latitude number The latitude at which to pick features.
Returns:
Undefined since picking is not supported.

requestImage(x, y, level, request)Promise.<ImageryTypes>|undefined

Requests the image for a given tile.
Name Type Description
x number The tile X coordinate.
y number The tile Y coordinate.
level number The tile level.
request Request optional The request object. Intended for internal use only.
Returns:
A promise for the image that will resolve when the image is available, or undefined if there are too many active requests to the server, and the request should be retried later.

Type Definitions

Initialization options for the WebMapTileServiceImageryProvider constructor
Properties:
Name Type Attributes Default Description
url Resource | string The base URL for the WMTS GetTile operation (for KVP-encoded requests) or the tile-URL template (for RESTful requests). The tile-URL template should contain the following variables: {style}, {TileMatrixSet}, {TileMatrix}, {TileRow}, {TileCol}. The first two are optional if actual values are hardcoded or not required by the server. The {s} keyword may be used to specify subdomains.
format string <optional>
'image/jpeg' The MIME type for images to retrieve from the server.
layer string The layer name for WMTS requests.
style string The style name for WMTS requests.
tileMatrixSetID string The identifier of the TileMatrixSet to use for WMTS requests.
tileMatrixLabels Array <optional>
A list of identifiers in the TileMatrix to use for WMTS requests, one per TileMatrix level.
clock Clock <optional>
A Clock instance that is used when determining the value for the time dimension. Required when `times` is specified.
times TimeIntervalCollection <optional>
TimeIntervalCollection with its data property being an object containing time dynamic dimension and their values.
dimensions object <optional>
A object containing static dimensions and their values.
tileWidth number <optional>
256 The tile width in pixels.
tileHeight number <optional>
256 The tile height in pixels.
tilingScheme TilingScheme <optional>
The tiling scheme corresponding to the organization of the tiles in the TileMatrixSet.
rectangle Rectangle <optional>
Rectangle.MAX_VALUE The rectangle covered by the layer.
minimumLevel number <optional>
0 The minimum level-of-detail supported by the imagery provider.
maximumLevel number <optional>
The maximum level-of-detail supported by the imagery provider, or undefined if there is no limit.
ellipsoid Ellipsoid <optional>
The ellipsoid. If not specified, the WGS84 ellipsoid is used.
credit Credit | string <optional>
A credit for the data source, which is displayed on the canvas.
subdomains string | Array.<string> <optional>
'abc' The subdomains to use for the {s} placeholder in the URL template. If this parameter is a single string, each character in the string is a subdomain. If it is an array, each element in the array is a subdomain.
